This edition of the Polley Music Library show on KZUM took a serious look at a vaguely Halloween-related topic: how do we deal with death in music? Music has long been used as part of funeral ceremonies, and many of use music to help with grief. And some musical pieces investigate our collective mortality more generally.
We have a couple of great books in Polley about this topic, and we talked about them in this show, and then heard some related music.
